If I Make A Wish

I’ve been told if I make a wish
On a star that’s shiny and bright
That an angel will hear that spoken wish
Sometime before it’s light.

The angels know the stars by name
Our Father taught them that
They know the one that’s wished upon
About them they do chat.

They take each wish as it’s sent above
Sort them out and put them in place
Grant those first for someone in need
For someone with tears on their face.

Don’t give up on the wish you make
If it’s not granted right away
Have faith that it’s in an angel’s care
To our Father they will convey.
